A few weekends ago, NLA-U hosted an 80's themed play party. Being a board member I was involved in the party planning. One of the most fun parts was coming up with ideas for punny 80's references. S was very good at this as well. It would have had to be a 200 person buffet line to fit them all in and I was certainly not going to cook, but I thought these deserved an honorable mention.

I'm getting hungry just writing this. Lol. Awesome food names aside, there were plenty of 80's outfits around from Madonna-esque stacks of bangles and leather jackets to neon colored tops and leggings. And big hair of course. I don't own any 80's clothes and had this same problem when SCONY had the same theme a while back. I did save my snap bracelet from that party to wear again and clipped some pink extensions into my hair. For anyone who still doesn't know who I am, I was checking your ID's at the door for the first two hours of the night. *waves* Fortunately there was some time left for spankings.

You didn't think this post was going to be all about food, did you? :-D T and I went downstairs to play. He had recently acquired a new implement that looked like a long thinner leather strap on a wooden handle. Apparently it is called a rebenque. I love belts and straps so was happy to try it out. It was fairly whippy, had some sting to it which I like. He also spanked me with a wooden spoon-like thing (which I consider more of a paddle), a cane, and his hand. I was very squirmy throughout the spanking and left with a well warmed bottom. It was remarked that you could probably fry an egg on it. We didn't try though so I can't comment on the practicality of that.

I was DM for an hour and then at the very end of the night found a space to play with S. I laid down on a massage table thinking he would be somewhat nice to my already sore bottom, but he wasn't. >:( It's like he thinks I enjoyed being pushed or something. He started spanking me with his hand to warm me up and had his case of toys nearby. He cycled through some straps, canes, a leather paddle, and I'm not certain what else. He owns a lot of things. Your collection grows when you start seeing a spanko. I somehow managed to not wriggle off the table and fall to the floor. He kept one arm across my back to keep me in place. Details blurred a bit but I was well attended to and left happy. I'd say it was a successful party!

Happy birthday to James Spader! He is 54 today. What should you do in honor of James Spader's birthday? Cuddle up and watch Pretty In Pink tonight. Have some sex, tell some lies, and watch some videotape. Catch up on The Black List on your DVR because it's so good. Have a dinner of one scoop of creamed potatoes, a slice of butter, four peas, and all the ice cream you can eat. Or my personal favorite- give or get a spanking while watching Secretary. That's what I plan to do. Below I'm reposting an older post of mine about why I love James Spader and the movie Secretary.

Okay so this is a spanko blog, you can see where this is going. For
anyone who hasn't watched the movie Secretary, why are you still sitting
there reading this? Go rent it, now! Alright, that's as toppy as I'll
get. I've always been a fan of James Spader. From the unlikeable pretty
boy Steff in Pretty in Pink to the over the top nerdy Mr. Richards in
Mannequin.

Sex Lies and Videotape, White Palace, Crash. He's clearly an actor who
likes to keep off the beaten path. I was an avid fan of The Practice and
have every season of Boston Legal on DVD. But it was after watching
Secretary that James Spader earned a special place in my heart.

Secretary
came out in 2002 and although I reside in the home state of the
Sundance film festival, I didn't see it until several years later. I
don't recall why it came up, but a coworker who was an independent film
buff mentioned it. I went and got myself a copy and watched it many
times. I always hid the DVD in my computer desk drawer, as if someone
seeing I owned it would immediately out me as a spanko. Lol. But at the
time, I had not come out into the lifestyle yet, didn't know there was a
lifestyle. One thing I did know was that the first spanking appears 49
minutes into the film. Seem a little exact? Go look it up. I've watched
that scene a few times. ;-)

Secretary
is about much more than spanking, of course. The dynamic between Edward
and Lee's characters, played wonderfully by Maggie Gyllenhaal, is
fascinating to watch. In more mainstream media, it seems that any
characters into kink get portrayed as freaks. The Killer Inside Me, anyone? This
movie is the only one I've seen that seems to give a more accurate
perspective of how these characters think and feel and that they are
otherwise "normal" people.

I
don't know what a vanilla person's perspective on this movie would be
since I'm spanko minded, but I always notice the little details when
watching this. How she intertwines her fingers with his after he first
spanks her. The look on her face when she goes to look at her freshly
spanked bottom in the mirror. His quiet but firm tone of voice. Her
happiness at eating four peas as her family looks on in awe. Her cunning
delight when she finally gets called into his office again after the
worm incident.

In
the overall picture of the movie, the spanking parts are brief. But the
relationships between these characters is what pulls me in. And there
are so many things that I can relate to. Upon seeing the part where she
swats herself with the brush, I thought other people have done that? Lol.
The scene where Lee is making out with her boyfriend and tries to place
his hand on her bottom but he keeps moving it up to her back. Then she
even lays across his lap sticking her bottom up high which just makes
him think she wants to have sex. That always makes me laugh.

Am
I personally into everything that they do in the movie? No. Please
don't tie me to a stove and throw tomatoes at me. But this kinky love
story will always remain a favorite. So much so that I even borrowed her
name as my own scene name. Gasp. Yep, the cat is out of the
bag, my name's not actually Lea. And don't even start with me on how I
spelled it wrong... Lol. As for James Spader, I'm glad that he can delve
into the unusual roles. E. Edward Grey will always be my favorite. And
now, some memorable lines.

E. Edward Grey: Look, we can't do this 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Lee: Why not?
